Hi!
I didn't understand your problem, think the post was truncated.
Regarding the lightness of window managers I think lxde is the lighter one, but lacks some simplicity in tools such as the ability to change keyboard layouts, and that is important for my use case, so I ended up with xcfe4.

Regarding the performance with remote traffic, it will always be a constraint, but the nomachine protocol I wrote about really helps.
